Plastic Surgery after Massive Weight Loss.
Review in Missouri medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03283475 (Surgical Management of Thigh Lipodystrophy), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery rates have increased in the United States concurrent with the rise in obesity. As a result of the massive weight loss from these surgeries, patients are left with a different set of functional and cosmetic issues related to excess skin. Plastic surgery has evolved to treat these unique issues faced by this patient population and has demonstrated beneficial effects. This article will provide an overview of the options available to massive weight loss patients to treat specifically affected area of the body.
